"Serious Charge" A sensational play of its time makes a dull film despite earnest performances (1959)
"Expresso Bongo" Heavily vulgarized version of a stage kit on the Tommy Steele rock phenomenon, divested of most of its satirical barbs and only intermittently amusing" (1959*)
"The Young Ones" A shipworn idea is the springboard for a brave try in a field where Britain was presumed to have failed; despite the enthusiasm it with which it was greeted at the time, it has dated badly" (1961*)
"Summer Holiday" Pacy, location-filmed youth musical with plenty of general appeal (1962*)
"Wonderful Life" Slight but zestful youth musical with highly illogical detail; the highlights is a ten-minute spoof history of the movies (1964*)
"Finders Keepers" Harmless youth musical without much style. Tunes poor, comedy rather too easy-going (1966)
"Two a Penny" Naive religious propaganda sponsored by the Billy Graham movement and featuring the evangelist in a cameo (1967)
"Take me High" Jaded youth musical with no dancing but some zip and bounce to commend it to mums and dads if not to its intended young audience (1973)
